Re: Asian horror cinema

^Yeah, at least Hostel had something of a story and attempted to build empathy for its victims, but The Butcher has none of that. And you don't feel anything for its main star especially after what he does to his own wife.

Calamity of Snakes (1983) - hilariously cheesy snakefest of a movie. Watch hundreds of snakes and a super giant python that can fly around and attack people. Watch a kung fu master trying to tame that giant python. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfVRfESEACc

Sweet Home (1989) - Japanese haunted house movie that came out together with the famous famicon game of the same name "Sweet Home" that was the first inspiration for the survivor horror game genreA clip from the moviehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0BR-9FEWIM

Tales of the unusual (2000) - a japanese anthology of 4 tales. However , only one of the tale is horror. "One snowy night" about plane crash survivors trapped on a snowy mountain is very good , atmospheric and pretty creepy for a short story.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLLWlVPUMhM
